Exactly. He had to go. Brice is right about one thing. It led to Khan making a big mistake in passing on Mitchell in the first round of the draft. Jackson isn't good. Even worse, he shies away from contact. Cornerback is one of many positions they are going to have to address this season.

I’m not so sure acquiring Jackson stops you from taking a guy like Mitchel. Think they were going oline all the way. They had a mandate of fixing the line and Fautanu was too good to pass up.

You know my thought on this trade because I have posted my scenario before.... If the Steelers did not trade DJ away, he would have been Pittsburgh's #2 WR, and #26 Donte Jackson would have never come to Pittsburgh. The Steelers would have been taking a CB in the 1st round. CB Quinyon Mitchell would have been Pittsburgh's 1st round pick.

So, YES. I think the Steelers would have been better in 2024 with DJ on offense and Quinyon Mitchell on Defense. Looking back, I give Khan a big fat F for this trade.

Getting Jackson for Johnson was a great trade

We got a starter for nothing

So long story short regarding WRs?!

Upgrade the position. Both Khan and Weidl went hard on Offensive Lineman last Offseason. Expect them to do the same for WRs and CBs this off-season.

Im thinking Weidl is going to turn his attention to the defensive line. Might be out first rd pick.

That was my suspicion as well. That said, WR needs to be attacked as well. Either Chris Godwin or Tee Higgins would work. I'd imagine though that Godwin is a bit more obtainable.

Plenty of great IDL players in the class.

I would rather go after Davante Adams on maybe a two year deal over Godwin, then draft another receiver.

Adams is up there in age though. Never mind that, would Adams even want to be there despite loving Tomlin?! This Offensive Scheme wouldn't take full advantage of his skillset set. This is also assuming Arthur Smith is still here mind you.

It did. He was on and off the team so fast a lot of people missed it

And now he's back with the Ravens again.

Sneaky bastards. He can’t play for them again this season. They did that for comp picks.
